Georgie is a 12-year-old kid who lives in London on her own. She’s happy about it — would rather it be that way. She steals bikes with her best mate Ali and sells them on to get by. At home, her flat is filled with magic — the resident spiders are constantly making snarky comments and she seems to be building a weird endless tower into the sky from her mum’s bedroom. When her estranged dad Jason turns up out of blue, she’s forced to confront what’s really going on.
